MODEL SM56
GENERAL
The Model SM56 is a slender, moving coil (dynamic)
microphone, built to provide wide range reproduction of
music and voice and featuring an exceptionally uniform
and effective unidirectional pickup pattern. The
performance characteristics and unique construction
make it ideal for studio and remote use in broadcasting,
recording, motion picture, and critical sound reinforcement applications.
UNIDIRECTIONAL DYNAMIC MICROPHONE
Microphone Features:
Unusually effective cardioid pickup pattern
minimizes effects of studio acoustics and
background noise. Rear and side rejection uniform to
very low frequencies and completely symmetrical
about the axis
Bright, clean sound. Especially effective for
announcing, narration and dialogue, vocal music,
and rhythm pickups
Cartridge and microphone body separately shock
mounted for quiet operation
Convenient impedance selection

Dynamic
Dual. Microphone rating impedance "L" is 38 ohms
(70 ohms actual) and microphone rating impedance
“H” is 150 ohms (300 ohms actual) for connection to
microphone inputs rated at 19 to 300 ohms. Shipped
with impedance switch at 150 ohms (“H” position)

IMPEDANCE SELECTION
Remove the impedance switch cover plate by removing the two 2-56 binding head machine screws at each
end of the cover plate. The center position of the slotted
Impedance-Off switch is the Off position;
counterclockwise (as shipped) is the 150-ohm position;
clockwise is the 38-ohm position. Select the desired
switch position, replace the impedance switch cover
plate, and secure with the two 2-56 binding head
machine screws.

ARCHITECTS’ SPECIFICATIONS
The microphone shall be a moving-coil (dynamic) type
with a frequency response of 40 to 15,000 Hz. The unit
shall have a cardioid polar characteristic. The cancellation at the sides shall be approximately 6 dB, and the
cancellation at the rear shall be 15 to 20 dB. The
microphone shall be a dual-impedance unit with rated
impedances of 38 ohms and 150 ohms for connection to
microphone inputs rated at 19 to 300 ohms. Impedance
change shall be by means of a three-position
Impedance-Off switch for setting the microphone for 38
ohms (“L” position), 150 ohms (“H” position), or Off (“O”
position).
The microphone output shall be -56.5 dB where 0 dB
= 1 milliwatt per 10 microbars.
